Mom is, of course, the mom of this operation.  Mother to seven sons (two of whom are adopted from Russia) and five daughters, she is a veritable well of wisdom.  Between mothering and grand-mothering (thirteen and counting!), she doesn't have much free time.  But when she does, she enjoys doing family history work, quilting, going to lunch, and checking the weather.  By the way, she is the best piano teacher around.

Heather is the oldest and, therefore, the wisest of the twelve Edd children.  She has four beautiful children, a doctor-husband, and a degree from Brigham Young University.  She also speaks Portuguese, having lived in Brazil for eighteen months.  She currently lives near Phoenix, Arizona.

Chelsea doesn't spend much time in cyberspace, so you may not hear much from her.  She married the oldest Edd son and has whipped him right into shape.  They are expecting their fourth child and live in St. Louis.

Angie cooks, bakes, cleans, crafts, and decorates her house with a finesse that the rest of us can only dream of.  She will be having her fourth baby any day now.  She is married to a vegetarian, and is also the family shopping expert.

Megan married into the family, but we all pretty much prefer her to Brent (don't tell him!), so we are REALLY glad that they ended up together.  Megan has two children - one more on the way- and they will be moving from St. Louis to the Chicago area this summer.  We all wish Chicago wasn't so far away.

Rachel is the fifth child, and probably suffers from Middle Child Syndrome.  She is an avid reader, writer, photographer, and a "well-rounded" musician.  Mother of one darling boy, she much prefers baking to cooking.

Matt and Kim are engaged, and at this point, neither of them thinks about anything else.  That's pretty much it.

Kiana and Emily, the youngest sisters, are practically inseparable, which makes it really awful when Kiana goes away to college.  Ki is attending BYU-Idaho while Em is finishing her sophomore year of high school.  Somehow Kiana ended up as the best pianist of the family, and Em as the best comedienne.
